Colors
Header text | Header text | Header text |
---|---|---|
Black | 0 V (GND) | COM |
Orange | +3.3V | |
Red | +5V | |
Yellow | +12V | |
Yellow + black stripe | +12 V (2nd rail) | Newer PSUs |
White | -5V | Not in newer PSUs |
Blue | -12 V | Not in newer PSUs |
Brown (small gauge) | +3.3V sense | Must be connected to the orange (+3.3V) to allow the PSU to detect and regulate output |
Pink (small gauge) | +5V sense | Must be connected to the red (+5V) to allow the PSU to detect and regulate output |
Yellow (small gauge) | 12V Sense | Must be connected to the yellow (+12V) to allow the PSU to detect and regulate output |
Green | PSU on | Connect to GND; put the switch here |
Grey | Power good (self test ok) | |
Purple | +5V Standby | The indicator LED |
